Dove Review

Snowflake is different from the other Gorillas, captured at a very young age due to the rarity of her coloring. She is raised by a human family that has a young daughter. The two grow up together and are very good friends. But when it comes time for Snowflake to go to the zoo, she finds that she misses her friend and also she needs to change because the oldest male gorilla at the zoo does not want her there because she is different.

In this film Snowflake is computer generated along with the other animals and all the animals talk. The voice track is dubbed so the movement of lips does not always match. But the movie is cute and teaches many lessons about not trying to change, to be true to yourself and that you should not judge others just because they are different or look different.

The Dove “Family-Approved” Seal for all ages is awarded to the movie, “Snowflake.”
